�� Michele and Jarrell Jackman �� For over fifty years the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation (SBTHP) has worked to protect, preserve, restore, reconstruct, and interpret historic sites in Santa Barbara County. Founded in 1963 by Dr. Pearl Chase and other concerned community leaders, SBTHP operates El Presidio de Santa Bárbara State Historic Park—Santa Barbara’s 18th century birthplace—under a unique agreement with California State Parks. The State has purchased the building that housed Jimmy’s Oriental Gardens, providing an opportunity to interpret the history of Santa Barbara’s Asian American community in the Presidio Neighborhood. SBTHP owns and operates Casa de la Guerra, the 1820s home of Presidio Comandante José de la Guerra and his family—the restored home is now a museum featuring original furnishings and rotating exhibits. In 2009, SBTHP signed an agreement with State Parks to manage and develop the Santa Inés Mission Mills, located near the town of Solvang, as a future California State Park. In 2011, SBTHP was awarded the Trustees’ Emeritus Award for Excellence in the Stewardship of Historic Sites by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. With the help of continuing education programs and exhibits, SBTHP strives to encourage community involvement and foster an appreciation for Santa Barbara County’s distinctive history.

AMERICAN LIFE IN POETRY Column 545

By Ted Kooser, U.S. Poet Laureate

�

��

25th reunion A quarter of a century since we left high school, and we’ve gathered at a posh restaurant. A little heavier, a little grayer, we look for the yearbook pictures caught inside these bodies of strangers.

�� The Gaviota Coast Conservancy is a tax exempt, non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of the rural character of the Gaviota Coast and its unique natural, scenic, agricultural, recreational, and cultural resources. GCC monitors all significant development on the Gaviota Coast, acting as a watchdog, reviewing EIRs, submitting comments, and filing appeals where necessary. Working through partnerships with other land conservation organizations, local landowners, resource agencies, and government entities, the Conservancy is promoting long-term strategies to protect the Gaviota Coast from the urban development that threatens this region. For info, visit www. gaviotacoastconservancy.org Article submitted by the Gaviota Coast Conservancy.

Some of our faces are etched with lines, the faint tracing of a lover’s touch, and some of our hair is silver-white, a breath of frost. And some of us are gone. But he’s here, the dark angel, everyone’s last lover, up at the microphone singing Save the last dance for me; he’s singing a cappella, the notes rising sweetly, yearningly toward the ceiling, which is now festooned with tissue ﬂowers, paper streamers, balloons. And we’re all eighteen again, lines and wrinkles erased, gray hairs gone, our slim bodies back, the perfect editing. A saxophone keens its reedy insistence; scents of gardenias and tea roses ﬂoat in the air from our wrist corsages and boutonnieres. No children or lovers have broken our hearts, it’s just all of us, together, in our fresh young skin, ready to do it all over again.
